Basic supplies for guinea pigs

Guinea pigs are not hard to take care of, but they need a lot of things that they need. 
  1. First of all you will need a good sized cage. For one guinea pig you will probably need a 30" x 36". And up to four guinea pigs you will need a 30" x 76".
  2. Then, you will need a food bowl for guinea pig pellets. Do not use guinea pig pellets that has seeds in it because they might choke on it.
  3. Also, you will need a water bottle. Guinea pigs always need fresh water every day. So, you will need to change the water everyday.
  4. When you have a water bottle, you will always need a water bottle cleaner. So the bottle don't get too dirty.
  5. Some bedding. You can use Carefresh or Aspen shavings. If you prefer, you can use fleece instead. NEVER use sawdust, pine, or cedar. It can injure them!
  6. Chew toys. Guinea pig's teeth never stop growing like every other rodent. Chew toys can help them so they don't overgrow their theeth.
  7. Hiding places. Such as houses, pouches, and hammocks. Guinea pigs are prey animals so they need hiding places.
  8. Last but not least is cleaning supplies. Broom and dustpan and cage wipes. Sometimes you will need to spot clean your guinea pig cage daily.
I hope this blogpost helped you and your guinea pigs. Thanks for reading my blog :)
